Nesting and foraging ecology of band-tailed pigeons in western Oregon

Creator:: Leonard, Jerome Patrick
Abstract:: Pacific Coast band-tailed pigeons (Columba fasciata) have declined markedly during the past several decades. Despite implementation of increasingly restrictive hunting regulations, populations have shown minimal signs of recovery. I radio-marked 127 adult band-tailed pigeons in the central Oregon Coast Range in April-May of 1993-95 to document nesting chronology and productivity,...

Survey of collection analysis practices in public and academic libraries in the United States, and the effect of automation thereon

Creator:: Cochrane, Linda Louise Loomis
Abstract:: This study investigated the practices public and academic library administrators find useful and utilize in analyzing use of collections. The study also investigated administrators' satisfaction with their collection use analysis practices, and the impact they perceived automation to have upon collection use analysis practices. A survey developed for this study...

Loss of self-esteem due to acquired brain injury : a multidisciplinary team approach to a single case study

Creator:: Mizelle, Woody R.
Abstract:: There are between one and two million occurrences of head injuries in this country each year causing an estimated 140,000 deaths. Fifty to seventy thousand who survive are left with such intellectual impairment as to preclude returning to a normal life. The purpose of this study is to investigate the...

Introductory college chemistry students' understanding of stoichiometry: connections between conceptual and computational understandings and instruction

Creator:: Wolfer, Adam J.
Abstract:: Previous research has shown a gap between chemistry students' conceptual and computational understandings of chemistry topics such as gas laws, equilibrium, and reactions. This qualitative study examined the conceptual and computational understandings of stoichiometry of college students enrolled in a large lecture Introductory Chemistry course. Factors that might influence students'...

Life history patterns of two allopatric clupeids : Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) and gulf menhaden (B. patronus)

Creator:: Powell, Allyn B.
Abstract:: Atlantic menhaden, compared to gulf menhaden, exhibit a life history pattern that appears to be adapted to a more unpredictable reproductive environment. From experiments on laboratory-reared eggs and larvae, Atlantic menhaden have larger eggs with larger yolk volume. They are larger at hatching, utilize their yolk faster, begin feeding at...

An organizational analysis of structural characteristics during the merger of two higher education organizations

Creator:: McMahon, John J.
Abstract:: Organization theory had seldom been applied to higher education organizations but recent developments in organization theory appeared to have potential for such application. No coherent theory of educational change had been developed. However, one multidisciplinary synthesis of literature on organizational change was congruent with modern organization theory and contained both...

Studies on the biosynthesis of the streptolidine moiety of streptothricin F

Creator:: Wityak, John
Abstract:: The loss of all deuterium labels from previous feedings of [2-²H]-, [3,3-²H₂]-, and [2,3,3-²H₃]arginines had indicated the possible intermediacy of β-hydroxy- and β-ketoarginine (30 and 31, respectively) in the biosynthesis of the streptolidine portion of streptothricin F (la). In order to confirm or refute this evidence, D,L-[2,3,3,5,5-²H₅]- arginine (32) was...

Worldwide phylogeography and local population structure of the rough-toothed dolphin (Steno bredanensis)

Creator:: Albertson, G. Renee
Abstract:: Several dolphin species have global distributions. The extent of their radiation and limits to gene flow are presumably a product of oceanographic features both recent and historical, behavioral specializations and social organization. Rough-toothed dolphins (Steno bredanensis) are globally distributed in tropical and subtropical waters and are generally found in depths...

A morphologic and morphometric analysis of the "Sorex vagrans species complex" in the Pacific Coast region

Creator:: Carraway, Leslie N.
Abstract:: Shrews of the "Sorex vagrans species complex" were classified into nine taxa on the basis of morphologic and morphometric analyses of 2,299 specimens from Washington, west of the Cascade Mountains in Oregon, and in the Coast Ranges of California. In Washington, Sorex monticolus setosus and S. m. obscurus occur west...
